As a gift, given a dear fur (6)
I believe the answer is:
tippet
'fur' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'as a gift given a dear' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'gift' could be 'tip' (tipping is a kind of gifting) and 'tip' is present in the answer.
'dear' could be 'pet' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'pet' is found in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tippet that I've seen before include "Anglican stole used during a service" , "Gratuity to a dear one to find a cape" , "Small collar of fur with ends hanging in front" , "Woman's fur shoulder-wrap" , "Woman's fur shoulder cape" .)
